it's all okay to me, I think some people have problems with the theme, try selecting another theme mines smoother with the standard theme but the new one doesn't bother me too much either

The dark themes in general seem to require more processing power on the client side as they are doing weird gradients and other styling. It sounds like some of the recent changes may have increased that usage. 

In through a website should not 'slow your system down' and once loaded only features such as the chatbox keep making requests which is a small overhead. The theme features should be fine if you have a half decent computer. 

Either way switching to one of the less customised themes will reduce resource usage.

Is it still slow? We identified an issue that was potentially causing slowness in loading etc. and that has been resolved. The other question would be what browser are you using? Apparently IE is shite with the site:

In any case, you can use the IPS theme is that is better for you so no worries.

Takes me 3 minutes to sign in on chrome, site loads fast, then a flash and reloads, press sign in then it takes about a minute for keyboard to come up, then a flash and you wait again, then sign in routine starts again, finally get in default loads and no problems.

That sounds very client-side, I would try clearing your cache/cookies etc. Also 'minute for keyboard to come up'.. are you on a mobile device there?

I have used the chameleon dark theme since day 1.

I'm good with the default theme.  light theme is easier on my eyes over a dark theme.  Dark themes cause too much ghosting for my eyes.

Ah.. I have no idea about compatibility with a tablet and have never tested, although in theory the site is 'responsive' I do not believe it is mobile-first. A couple of things I can look at now but don't have high hopes.

So no change in performance recently? Certainly the issue we fixed was affecting all users (different levels/times etc. as it was related to a third party service). 

However 'forever to type' sounds very much like a client side issue, although this platform does has some 'live' functionality for notifications and features like the chatbox once it is loaded it is loaded. Lagging an entire 'system' is a hard thing for a website to do.

'Cleaning' your system weekly will certainly result in worse performance for an image heavy site such as this.

Also as an aside, when I was investigating this (got out my old tablet!) I did change what blocks display on mobile/tablet on the homepage to clean it down and make it more usable. Generally the mobile/tablet view should be allot more condensed and not the full picture - both for speed and usability. If I have removed anything that you believe should display then please shout.

No everythings there on the tablet, but still the same, fine on my pc though, once I sign in and get to the white background it's ok ?
